===PC-BSD 9.0 Snapshots===

+

−

+

−

Every few weeks or so, we are releasing updated "snapshots" of PC-BSD 9, based upon the latest FreeBSD 9-CURRENT. The technical minded, or simply the brave are welcome to download and test these releases.

+

−

+

−

====Getting the Snapshots====

+

−

+

−

The current snapshots are available for download from the PC-BSD FTP server:

+

−

+

−

[ftp://ftp.pcbsd.org/pub/snapshots ftp://ftp.pcbsd.org/pub/snapshots]

+

−

+

−

The snapshots are available in several different formats, in order to make it easier to find a fit for you.

+

−

+

−

'''DVD''' - This is the preferred method of installation. This file contains PC-BSD / FreeBSD and all the various window-managers for 9, which you can pick from during the install.

+

−

+

−

'''CD''' - This is a slimmed down release which includes PC-BSD and the LXDE window manager ONLY. Post-installation it is possible to install other WM's, but they are not included on the CD media and must be installed via the net.

+

−

+

−

'''DVDLIVE''' - This is a LIVE version of PC-BSD which includes KDE4

+

−

+

−

'''Bootonly''' - This is a boot-only version of the PC-BSD installation, which will allow installing via the internet or local network.

+

−

+

−

'''USBFULL''' - This is the USB version of the full DVD image.

+

−

+

−

'''USBLITE''' - This is the USB version of the CD image.

+

−

+

−

'''USBLIVE''' - This is the USB version of the DVD-Live image.

+

−

+

−

'''USB Bootonly''' - This is the USB version of the Bootonly CD image.

+

−

+

−

+

−

====Network / Internet installation====

+

−

+

−

Snapshots are currently only available from the PC-BSD FTP server, and not our mirrors. If you wish to do a network installation of a snapshot, you will need to specify the URL manually, such as:

+

−

+

−

Server: ftp.pcbsd.org

+

−

+

−

Directory: /pub/snapshots/9-CURRENT-20110414/amd64/netinstall

+

−

+

−

(Replace the 20110414 with the current snapshot date, and amd64 with i386 if necessary)

+

−

+

−

====Reporting Bugs====

+

−

+

−

It is very important to report bugs found in the snapshots, so that there is time to fix them before we get closer to BETA/RC status. Equally important is reporting the bugs to the correct location. The first thing to determine is what type of bug is this? Is it a bug with something specific in FreeBSD? Is this a window-manager bug? Is this a bug in PC-BSD related tools or configuration?
